An icon of Ligurian tradition. Two wafer-thin layers of pastry enclosing a centre of melted cheese, crispy on the outside and creamy on the inside. A speciality that celebrates the simplicity of its ingredients, enhanced by the precision of constant heat for impeccable browning and melt-in-the-mouth texture.

A thin focaccia, baked and topped with cheese, served in slices on a wooden chopping board; alongside it, a bowl of fresh cheese and a knife.

Extra virgin olive oil to taste

Salt to taste

Proceedings

Pour the flour onto the work surface and make a well in the centre. Pour 4 tablespoons of oil, 200 ml of water and a pinch of salt into the well. Start mixing the ingredients, first with a fork, then with your hands. Knead the dough until it becomes soft and elastic. Wrap it in cling film and leave it to rest at room temperature for at least an hour.

Divide the dough in half. Dust the work surface with flour and roll out the two halves with a rolling pin, pulling and lifting the dough with your hands to obtain

2 very thin sheets measuring approximately 35x28 cm. Grease a shallow rectangular baking tray with a little oil and place one sheet of dough in it. Spread the cheese over it, then cover with the remaining sheet and overlap the edges to seal them.

Prick the surface in several places, whisk 3 tablespoons of oil with 3 tablespoons of lukewarm water and a pinch of salt to brush over the surface of the focaccia. Bake the focaccia in a preheated oven at 250°C until golden brown (10–12 minutes), or select the Bread function on the display and set it to Focaccia. Leave to rest for 3–4 minutes covered with a cloth, then serve.

Steaming requires lower temperatures, and thanks to this gentle method, it cooks food differently, preserving the nutritional and organoleptic properties of the ingredients to the greatest extent possible. In this way, the carefully selected, tasty and healthy ingredients retain their original flavours, colours and textures.
